Same. Both times I can appreciate the quality of the film and how it was one of the first movies to not dumb down the science too much for an audience, but the emotional impact is on another level from a young adult to a parent. It was absolutely brilliant how in a film that centers around space, time, science, and the cold threat of extinction, that we see so much of the humanity shine through, in the message about love, the way some resort to selfish self preservation, some self-sacrifice, and in every moment we can ask ourselves how we’d fare in that situation. Cooper is a far more selfless person than me were it to come to choosing my family over the tenuous promise of saving the world.
Amazing line! but i always had one important question and plot hole i've found in this movie after watching it dozens of times... Why hasn't the surviving humans gone to Edmunds planet by now?... With their technological advancements i'm sure they would have known and can make it. They had to know bc Murphy knew about Brand when she told coop to go to her...
It's wild that this movie was considered "a lesser Nolan movie" when it first released. But as the years have passed, more and more people are recognizing it for the powerful emotional film that it is. Great reactions as always! :)
For me, this was #2 of Nolan’s films behind TDK right off the bat. I was blown away by it. I saw it in IMAX the night it premiered and I remember saying afterwards to the friends I went with that this is the sort of movie that justifies the continued existence of movie theaters. I remember saying the same thing after Inception before it, and again just recently right after Oppenheimer. Nolan, Villeneuve, and Tarantino are some of the few filmmakers left keeping that experience not only alive, but sacred.
@@mikeyshowpresents if you guys are interested, you really should do a reaction for Oppenheimer if you haven’t seen it already. It’s my number one movie of the year.
I loved it so much that after having watched the first time I immidiately invited friends over the next day to have an excuse to watch it again and because I wanted to show its awesomeness to them.@@mikeyshowpresents
For me when I left the theater I HATED it but loved the visuals and music. It took a second viewing for this to be in my top 5. I couldnt get passed the power of love stuff in the teseract BUT Ive grown to just accept its 5min of dialog I dont like in a 2+ hr movie and I like what is happening in that scene sending the signs just not the dialog.
Saw this in the theaters with my dad with a son’s prospective and it tore me apart…now as a father of 2 and watching it as a father’s prospective..the emotions are even stronger!..one of the best movies ever made
I could not agree with you more! This film absolutely broke us. Sean is not a dad but I am and even he felt the profound emotion in McConaughey‘s performance. This is in my top five of all time now. - Mikey
You should watch Erik Voss' Deep Dive on this film. The books on that shelf were actual books hand-picked by Director Nolan himself, many of them having profound influence for his works. @@mikeyshowpresents
Watched Interstellar w/u guys, what a terrific idea u have so in my old age aline i feel like I'm watching w/2 new friends. Great to find ur chan@@mikeyshowpresents
For all the citicism this movie gets, no other Nolan movie has been so profoundly emotional, awe-inspiring and utterly ambitious. I don't know if it's my favourite Nolan film but I cannot deny just how impactful and beautiful this film was and is to me. Great reactions.
Just in case you didnt catch it, when Anne Hathaway's character instinctively picked the right planet based on love shows that love is a gravitational force and can travel across spacetime on the quantum level. This is how McConaughey was able to help murph in the end, also humans being helped by actions from the future. They let love be the powerful force of nature that it is and as their compass.
I noticed they didn’t catch that either. The concept of love transcending space and time is truly mind blowing and adds another amazing level of emotion and awe to the story.
I would like to give some scientific refinement to your sentiment; Our consciousness is non-local. Meaning it does not exist in three dimensional space time. Therefore it is not bound by the laws that govern three dimensional space time. That is why the experiences of consciousness, like love, can transcend space and time. Gravity is yet to be determined whether it is exclusively a three dimensional phenomenon, or something that exists in higher dimensions. It is an ongoing investigation at present time. Edit: I also want to note that the explanation of consciousness being non-local is a scientific theory held by many prominent theoretical physicists. There are many studies that demonstrate consciousness being non-local. In fact there are mathematicians and theoretical physicists that would argue all of reality is a result of consciousness. Our conscious mind literally collapses quantum probability into the three dimensional reality we experience with our sensory organs. Without consciousness, the universe would not exist.
@@jack-o_lanternthat whole argument feels nonsensical to me and I'll use your last line to explain what I mean It's like the old saying, "if a tree falls in a forest but nobody is around to hear it, did it make a sound?" But that old saying has a definite answer. Yes, it did make a sound. Just because nobody perceived it doesn't mean it didn't happen The physical universe does exist, and it would exist even if we weren't around to see it. Our brains take in all the spacetime goop and translate it into something that we can roughly understand as the 3 dimensions around us. But even if we weren't here to see it, all the spacetime goop would still exist anyway. Humans aren't some magical beings that spacetime can't exist without. We are without a doubt vastly more intelligent than any other animal on earth, but if humans didn't exist, reality would keep chugging right along, and all the less intelligent animals would still perceive it Yes, our minds "collapse" spacetime into something we can perceive as 3 dimensions, but everything out there just keeps existing even if we don't
@@j0hn00 I can’t show you the math here so if you are interested check out any of the Lex Fridman podcasts with Donald Hoffman. He explains the concept of consciousness being the precursor to reality.
Something I think is really amazing about this movie is that when Nolan approached Hans Zimmer for the soundtrack, he asked Zimmer to compose something that illustrates the relationship between a father and his child. Zimmer knew nothing about the plot or even the genre. While the movie is this crazy sci-fi concept, the soundtrack keeps highlighting the true theme of the love he has for his daughter - similar to the concept Brand described when she was saying love transcends dimensions and was driving her to see Edmond.
It's the third highest rated Nolan film on IMDB though. Just behind Inception and The Dark Knight. But I do agree it's a wonderful movie, and it can bring most people to tears for sure. I love it.
Your point is right, but its 22nd on iMDB. Dark Knight is 3rd, Inception 14th. Nolan is good, but not all 3 of the top 3 good ahah@@rowaystarco Shawshank is 1, The Godfather is 2. But yeah, its pretty hard to say this movie is underrated, basically everyone calls it a masterpiece.
I think the design of the earth tech in the first arc of the movie is really intelligent. Because there's a global food crisis, they don't bother designing fancy gadgets like we're used to seeing in futuristic movies. Instead, a lot of the tech actually reverts BACKWARDS, to what's cheap and easy to make. Only the software has advanced: AI powered farm equipment, automated drones, and aging military robots.
@@mikeyshowpresentsWhile the docking scene is one of my favourites, I do genuinely think you guys made the right call cutting it for some of the more... human/emotional stuff that I've seen most other reactions cut out.
@@RotundBox That was our thinking. The docking scene was really amazing but we really went for the stuff that punched us in the gut emotionallly. - Mikey
28:37 so here’s an interesting fact for you. So this movie was released in 2014, and Nolan consulted a lot of scientists for this film, including the theoretics of what a black hole would look like theoretically because at the time we had never had a photograph of one. and I think we got our first picture of one like last year and it looks so similar to what’s presented in this movie. It’s crazy how close it is.
The fact that Gargantua had an (edge-on view) "ring" (The Accretion Disk), but ALSO had a circular Halo, Above and Below: That Halo is the the gravity BENDING light AROUND from the Far Side of the Disk, then-visible to us 'above' and 'below' the black hole ! The telescope photos catch something else: the Doppler effect - because one side of the disk is moving (rapidly) Away from us, and the other is moving (rapidly) Toward us. That was omitted in the movie effect, on the assumption that movie viewers would more relate to a celestial object that was 'symmetrical'.
@@anorthosite I mean I didn’t know all that I was just simply referring to the fact that since we had never seen a black hole before it’s interesting that they were able to visualize it in this movie and then when we finally got our first picture of a black hole house similar, both of them looked
@@The_Movie_Minute Art, approximating/predicting observation of Existence (astrophysicists were consulted in the making of the movie). It's All Good, or (to translate into Matthew MC) : "Allright Allright Allright...Slick" ;D
Y’know. I’ve understood how time dilation works for a while. But it never really struck me as hard as Connor seeing his kids so much older in the span of what felt like a New York minute to him. It’s such a visceral punch in the gut.
The greatest movie of all time, for me personally. I’ve caught grief from people who disagree, that’s fine, but no other film has the ability to make me feel the way Interstellar does every time. I highly recommend Arrival, as others have. It’s fantastic! Cheers!
@@mikeyshowpresents yes!! He (Denis Villeneuve) also did Blade Runner 2049. He and Nolan are my two favorite directors. They both make movies that: 1. Are visually stunning 2. Have jaw-dropping soundtracks 3. Are extremely intelligent, thought-provoking, but also deeply human and emotional. Can’t wait to see your Arrival reaction (and hope you do BR2049 if you haven’t already). Subbed!! 😁
It is very hard to really label just one movie as the greatest, there are just too many deserving of that title. At some point I don't order them, which is why I don't have a top 10. There is just a collection of works that are all labelled as "the greatest ones", that's where I put it, together with others that don't need to be further categorized.
A cool detail to the film: In the background soundtrack when they land on the first water planet, there is a ticking sound. Based on the seven years per hour effect, every tick you hear represents a day going by back on Earth. Nolan decided to include that.
This is my favorite film of all time. I don’t think anything can compare to the emotion, the anxiety, the visual stimulation, music. Everything about it is perfect. I still remember walking out of the theater as a 20 year old kid and just being dumbfounded at what I just watched. Trust me it’s even better the second time around. Most don’t grasp the complexity and the weight of the story the first time around. Well done on the reaction gentlemen. I’m glad you enjoyed it as much as I did
I just finished leaving my own comment on this video before scrolling down to find yours pretty much describing the same kind of all-absorbing reaction. Cheers!
I got my wife to watch it as she had never seen it before, and she couldn’t stop herself from crying when she realized he wasn’t the hero of the story, but his daughter was.
I feel like they were both the heroes, Murphy couldn't have saved everyone and the world without her dad sacrificing himself to go into the blackhole and inputting information into the clock hand, Cooper wouldn't have been a hero if it wasn't for his children, he wanted them to have a future and save them which is why he left in the first place.
Good Will Hunting The Martian Gravity No Country for Old Men Zodiac Parasite Spotlight Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Get Out Nope Prisoners The Iron Giant Moonlight The Big Lebowski The Thing Fight Club The Departed Gran Torino 12 Years a Slave all these movies are absolute bangers
Ugly crying. Every time. As someone who never had a father like Cooper, I guess it hits me harder when other people (fictional or not) have such a deep connection with their loving fathers. Murph went through so much pain 😢 I sympathize with her feelings of abandonment and resentment.
I remember watching this before I was a dad. It hits SOOOOO much harder after becoming a parent. I teared up the first time through...I am absolutely bawling my eyes out watching it as a parent. One of the greatest movies of all time.
I couldn’t agree with you more. I have three boys. I have twins that are 14 and my oldest is 17. As you can see by my reaction, clearly I was thinking of them as I watched this film. It really does hit you harder when you’re a parent. Also, I want to let you know that we are doing a live Q&A tonight at 8 PM Eastern time, 5 PM Pacific here in the US. if you have the time, please join us!! - Mikey
Dude. I’m working most of the time and get to see my 2 year old a few hours a week at most. That scene pulled some strings before but it hits like a truck now.
I've loved this movie since it came out, my favorite of all time. I'm weirdly excited to see it when I become a father one day because I'm such a sucker for the catharsis.
greatest movie i've seen in my life. I went to see it in IMAX the day it opened and immediately bought another ticket for the very next showing. such an experience. wish i could wipe my brain and be able to watch it again for the first time.
I did the exact same thing with Inception. No spoilers in case the boys have not seen it, but that last scene caused me to question what had transpired, so I needed to see it again.
When I saw INTERSTELLAR for the first time in theaters--on an actual IMAX screen, to boot--I felt such a variety of emotions that no other movie (before or since) has induced in me. I was mostly in awe of it. Swells of emotion. The visuals were beautiful. The music lifted me. The tension struck new chords in me. The acting wrecked me. I was happy, I was sad, I was thrilled, I was worried; I even chuckled at some points. This movie had it all. I left the theater with such a wide grin. I remember telling the others in my viewing party (which included my wife) that we just watched Nolan’s masterpiece and that it was probably the best film I’ve ever experienced--because it was not just a movie, it was truly an experience for me. I ended up watching it on that same IMAX screen again soon after. And then on a regular screen somewhere else the next week. And then on a so-called (not so big) IMAX” screen (i.e., a LIE-MAX) at yet a 3rd theater sometime after (to cleanse my viewing palette from the smaller screen at the 2nd theater). So I saw this movie in theaters four (4) times, which is something that again, has NOT happened before or since. INTERSTELLAR is currently my favorite movie of all-time. Funnily enough, my previous all-time favorite was also a Nolan classic: MEMENTO. I really enjoy watching other people’s reactions to INTERSTELLAR. My wife doesn’t understand what I like about such content but it just brings me joy to see others experience this movie. It’s almost like I’m watching it for the first time again. 😊 UPDATE: I don't know how I was so lucky, but I recently stumbled across the INTERSTELLAR movie page on the Fandango website last week and noticed that a theater about an hour away from me was playing the movie this weekend. So of course I had to make the drive to go see it (I caught the Sunday matinee). So now I've seen this film five (5) times in a cinema.

I saw this in the theatre and I can only speak as a father with children. It was like it reached into your heart and squeezed it thinking about your own kids.
This gotta be my favorite reaction to this movie. Thanks a lot, guys! You should definitely watch The Green Mile if you haven't yet, another powerful emotional movie.

Yeah, I remember… The utter awe when I walked from the theater with my partner and we didn’t say a word till we got home after 20 minutes. Watching your reaction brought it all back. Wow.
Dito. It was a saturday night and I went straight to bed after coming home. I did not want to just watch some TV and I did not want to talk. I wanted to process what I just had witnessed calmly and by myself. I was so stirred up even though I do not even have kids.
A small detail many miss is that Brand feels compelled to choose Edmunds' planet because of love and gets ridiculed for it, yet she ends up being right that it’s the habitable one (hence why she took her helmet off in relief in the final shot) demonstrating the movie's message about love transcending space and time.
Really impressed with your reactions guys .. unlike most reactors .. you seemed to know when to talk .. and when not to! A LOT of effort went into making this movie as realistic as possible .. with minimal editorial licence. Heartfelt reactions and well worth the viewing. Maybe you could react to 'The Martian' next .. if you haven't already done so. Cheers from Australia guys! Subscribed.
I love introspective and attentive reactors who analyze the heck out of films by pausing them nonstop to discuss with eloquence, even if their hunches are wrong... the best parts are actually being off. LOL
Interstellar had such an impact on my life. Love. Transcends space and time. Great upload, sincere reaction, cried right along with you guys and I've seen the movie a dozen times.
@@mikeyshowpresents I was able to pick up on that when I first watched it as a kid, but they trick you anyway: one of the "interviewees" (the one who says "My dad was a farmer, like everyone else back then...") is Old Murph spliced in! I didn't even realize it until my 4th or 5th viewing!
saw it in theater when it came out, it's an entirely different level of hit when you hear that music in theater sounds, that rich immersive sound. So powerful.
I lost count on how many insterstellar reaction videos I´ve seen but God... that was THE best I´ve watched by far. Thank you very much for your time and effort doing this amazing video!
I can’t tell you how much that means to us. That is really kind and I hope that you consider subscribing to our channel. Please give us a like because that helps us with the UA-cam algorithm and we are still a young channel. Thank you again for your kindness. - Mikey
I saw this movie at 27yo, 4 years before I became a Father for my Daughter. It was an amazing, gut-wrenching and emotional ride at the time, and every, single, quality, reaction exponentiates that to this day. Love your loved ones err-one, keep 'em close. Peace and blessings all.
I felt both Mikey and Sean. I watched it the first time before I became a father, and watch it again after having my daughter. The impact was completely different. I like watching Interstellar reactions, because they tell me it's all right for a grown man to cry. Still bawling out my eyes every time I watch it. 😭😭😭
This was insane in theaters. If it ever gets a re-release, especially in IMAX, you gotta go see it. We caught it in 70mm and it was life changing. You've gotta hear that score at the volume it was meant for.
This movie brings me to tears EVERYTIME i watch it. I think it really resonates deeper with parents. Imagine being gone for just moments and missing their entire growth, and life. That is the part that makes me the most sad.
Fun fact: we found out that when you hear a little click when they are on Miller’s planet, it represents one year back home. If you would, please consider giving us a subscription and please like the video. It helps so much with the UA-cam algorithm. - Mikey
'This movie has got to Stop!! I'm a wreck right now!' I truly appreciate your emotional reactions, especially when watching the playback videos of Murphy's kids as they grew up. Absolutely heartbreaking. Brilliant film I could watch over and over again.
As far as movies not based on a book but pure cinema, this is in my top 5 of all time. If not #1. It caused me to dig back into all of Nolan’s work and he may be my favorite director. Great reaction guys. This is wonderful storytelling.✌️

what a honest, authentic and beatiful reaction from 2 distinguished gentlemen. I watched. I admired. I subsribed. cheers from Slovakia. keep up doing great videos
Greatest movie of all time! The way this film illicits pure emotion from the viewer is next level. I cannot wait to show this movie to my kids when they’re old enough. I am commenting this comment in 2024. So, future me, if you still have this channel and remember this comment, hello. I’m sure you watched this movie when your (our) kids are around 14-15 so that they can understand it enough and I bet you cried your eyes out like you always do. Being a father is probably one of the greatest things ever. I hope you’re the best dad ever. I can’t wait to be in your shoes.
Best reaction i've found to this film. Well edited, full of really good insights. Theorizing its the best! and an exciting and honest wholesome reaction. Thank you for this!
We really appreciate those kind words. It means so much to us that people are enjoying our channel. We are very excited about how fast it is growing because we have only done a few movies but there is a lot more on the way. Also, keep on the lookout for us releasing the docking scene in its entirety. - Mikey
Fun fact for you guys if you didn’t know already. When the crew arrives on the water planet, the significance of the time dilation is emphasized once they leave the ship. You’ll hear a ticking the entire scene. Each tick is equivalent to one day on Earth. They occur every 1.25 seconds.
I just found you guys and I love your reaction to this. I like how you discuss it during the movie instead of waiting to the end. Plus, the editing is great.
They had a lot of help portraying the physics in this movie. One of the producers is a Nobel Laureate in Physics. The visual effects alone resulted in the writing of three different scientific papers on black holes.
😊 as soon as these guys started tearing up I was just like do they have daughters?! These guys are great. Plus, I mean, interstellar is one of my favorite movies
you guys are in luck, Interstellar will be back in IMAX for a week starting September 27th! Keep an eye out for a venue list as we get closer to the date, and if possible, travel to a theater near you that will show it in IMAX 70mm. Most people have never had the pleasure to see one of the few movies shot partially with IMAX film cameras actually get projected on IMAX film. The screen is 6 stories tall and over an hour of the film will take up every inch of it, the clarity is outstanding and it feels like you're looking through a window rather than watching a video. When cooper leaves earth, the wormhole scene, millers planet, the docking scene, escaping the black hole, all of those sequences are shot with the IMAX camera and it will leave you speechless to see it on the proper screen. Truly breathtaking and it's my favorite theater experience of all time. Glad you guys enjoyed this one!
Near the end of this masterpiece's theatrical run, no one else in my family cared that much about it, and I was working 4 days each week 3000 miles from home. So I saw it in a distant theater, already feeling lonely, with only one other person in the theater way back in a corner somewhere. I could marvel and grin and cry alone. It was perfect.
Top 5 best films in history. After Rottentomatoes gave interstellar a 73% ten years ago I never went back to that site for movie or TV recommendations, it is still dead to me 🤣 Can't wait to check your Nolan movie reactions!!! Very honest and heartwarming reaction to the final 3 minutes just perfect
Recently rewatched this movie and your reaction got recommended. Just wanted to say I really appreciate how you guys don't shy away from pausing and talking to fully understand what's going on. I wish others would do this!
I watched this movie in a long flight for the first time , and it felt crazy , because I was going to meet my daughter after some time , it hit me hard hanging high up in the air . Great Nolan and all the performances were great
Idk if y’all realized but at the end brand was at edmunds planet. He found a planet where we could thrive and started a colony. She was right because of love. Just how copper had a connection to murph cuss of love as well
You all did such a great job breaking it down and understanding it on your first watch. It truly is a beautiful film. From the story, to the score, the shots, the message, the science, even the set design.
You guys are the first reactors I’ve watched who figured out that the interviewee portion of the movie was actual documentary interview clips from Dust Bowl survivors
I'm Brazilian and this is the second time I've come to react and cry with you. The sincerity and how you let yourself go in interstellar is incredible. A big hug and thank you.
One of the best Sci Fi movies of all time in my opinion. The soundtrack is simply amazing. I am just hoping that they will return it to the BIG SCREEN sometime in the future.
Hard to imagine that a sci fi movie could pack so many emotional gut punches. Nolan's a genius. I would suggest Inception by Nolan. A real rollercoaster of a ride.
Guys, this was a FANTASTIC reaction. It's everything I want when I look for movie reactions. To re-experience these wonderful, powerful, resonating emotions that these films evoke in us. I truly felt like I was back in the theater watching this with my friends for the first time again. This is one of the truly most magical things about movies for me. We can sit in a dark room, in front of a screen, and all be connected by the power of storytelling. I'm stuck in bed with the flu, and this reaction has made my day. I was laughing, cheering, and crying all over again with you both. And your love of movies shines through in your videos. I deeply, deeply appreciate the time and work you guys put in to give us this stuff. Thank you!
I saw this movie for the first time in IMAX and I was in absolutely awe the entire time. I didn't want it to end and I left the theatre with such joy and wonder in my mind. Between the visuals and the film score and the gripping story of family and human losses and triumphs it's such a treat to watch. I'm glad you guys felt the same.
when the movie ended, and they switched the lights back on in the theatre, not a single person was okay. kids, grown ups, dads, and anything in between, all ALL a mess. this movie is an experience.
About the interviews in the beginning, my guess is that these interviews are real and talk about the great dust bowl of the great plains in the 1930s. The movie is set in the future, but again with draught, dying crops and dust everywhere just like in the past, but now constantly.
A movie that truly hits you on all levels! It doesn't slow down, it keeps you thinking and feeling right to the very end, and I always want at least one more scene, maybe of Coop silently waking up Brand, but that's the hallmark of a great movie, that it give you so so much, but you still want more! And I was really glad Nolan didn't fall into the cliche of evil robots. I could imagine someone else saying maybe the robots were programmed to take over, like Hal9000, and they start having to fight them. But instead, TARS and CASE are friends and helpers who really make the whole thing possible. I loved that. Great reaction guys, loved it all the way!
Saw this when it came out three times. Cried harder each seperate viewing, and even worse when watching at home, never understood the people who dismiss this film because of the science and not feeling the emotion of the characters.
Watching other people watch this master piece is such a treat. Because of this movie there’s a few few people in my life that I love dearly and I always tell them… “through time and space and anywhere in between… just know I will always be your ghost” just like with Murphy and her father… he was her ghost.
yeah, this movie is a emotional roller coaster for sure! not only for the beauty of the human aspects, but also the amazing scientific aspects about our cosmos and space-time.
Interstellar is by far my favorite movie of all time, I love everything space-related, and the feelings and the amazing movie work behind make it such an amazing movie. No matter how many times I watch it still brings a tear to my eye.
I wish this movie explored the concept at 6:59 more. Got more into the politics and how NASA has to be hidden and how education has been changed to make people think that space travel is a useless endeavor built on propaganda. I just feel like there’s so many interesting possibilities in a world like that, especially from a director like Chris Nolan.
Fun fact about the movie. They wrote the music for it before they wrote the script. They listened to the music while writing the script. I did a whole research paper on this film in college.
Nolan told Zimmer that it was a movie about a son and a father, and that was basically all he told him. He didn't want the typical sci fi music and didn't want Zimmer to be influenced by that.@@mikeyshowpresents
The difference between watching this film when it came out in my 20s to watching it as a father in my 30s is a whole other level of emotional damage
Same. Both times I can appreciate the quality of the film and how it was one of the first movies to not dumb down the science too much for an audience, but the emotional impact is on another level from a young adult to a parent. It was absolutely brilliant how in a film that centers around space, time, science, and the cold threat of extinction, that we see so much of the humanity shine through, in the message about love, the way some resort to selfish self preservation, some self-sacrifice, and in every moment we can ask ourselves how we’d fare in that situation.

Also breaks me when I think of my husband and my daughter, and how seriously she takes his promises.

Amazing line! but i always had one important question and plot hole i've found in this movie after watching it dozens of times...
Why hasn't the surviving humans gone to Edmunds planet by now?... With their technological advancements i'm sure they would have known and can make it. They had to know bc Murphy knew about Brand when she told coop to go to her...
It's wild that this movie was considered "a lesser Nolan movie" when it first released. But as the years have passed, more and more people are recognizing it for the powerful emotional film that it is. Great reactions as always! :)
It’s for sure my favorite Nolan film and one of my favorite films ever. - Mikey
For me, this was #2 of Nolan’s films behind TDK right off the bat. I was blown away by it. I saw it in IMAX the night it premiered and I remember saying afterwards to the friends I went with that this is the sort of movie that justifies the continued existence of movie theaters. I remember saying the same thing after Inception before it, and again just recently right after Oppenheimer. Nolan, Villeneuve, and Tarantino are some of the few filmmakers left keeping that experience not only alive, but sacred.
@@mikeyshowpresents if you guys are interested, you really should do a reaction for Oppenheimer if you haven’t seen it already. It’s my number one movie of the year.
I loved it so much that after having watched the first time I immidiately invited friends over the next day to have an excuse to watch it again and because I wanted to show its awesomeness to them.@@mikeyshowpresents
For me when I left the theater I HATED it but loved the visuals and music. It took a second viewing for this to be in my top 5. I couldnt get passed the power of love stuff in the teseract BUT Ive grown to just accept its 5min of dialog I dont like in a 2+ hr movie and I like what is happening in that scene sending the signs just not the dialog.
Saw this in the theaters with my dad with a son’s prospective and it tore me apart…now as a father of 2 and watching it as a father’s prospective..the emotions are even stronger!..one of the best movies ever made
I could not agree with you more! This film absolutely broke us. Sean is not a dad but I am and even he felt the profound emotion in McConaughey‘s performance. This is in my top five of all time now. - Mikey
You should watch Erik Voss' Deep Dive on this film. The books on that shelf were actual books hand-picked by Director Nolan himself, many of them having profound influence for his works. @@mikeyshowpresents
Watched Interstellar w/u guys, what a terrific idea u have so in my old age aline i feel like I'm watching w/2 new friends. Great to find ur chan@@mikeyshowpresents
Fuuck its been 10 years already?! .. brooo
I remember the day it came out and i wanted to watch it and went to cinema.. and its rare i go there 😂
Tears in my eyes every time I watch an interstellar reaction 😞
Unreal emotional movie. I adored it. - Mikey
110% agreed
STAY T.T
SAME!
a lot of onion cuting every time
For all the citicism this movie gets, no other Nolan movie has been so profoundly emotional, awe-inspiring and utterly ambitious. I don't know if it's my favourite Nolan film but I cannot deny just how impactful and beautiful this film was and is to me. Great reactions.
We agree 100%. - Mikey
When his son says, "I hope you are at peace wherever you are" and Cooper shakes his head. This gets me every time
As a second child from an acoholic family, this movie just makes me cry from the start. Nolan/Zimmer. ❤
😭😭😭😭
@@JoakimOtamaaZimmer does some of his best work here. Adds so much to the emotional resonance.
Just in case you didnt catch it, when Anne Hathaway's character instinctively picked the right planet based on love shows that love is a gravitational force and can travel across spacetime on the quantum level. This is how McConaughey was able to help murph in the end, also humans being helped by actions from the future. They let love be the powerful force of nature that it is and as their compass.
I noticed they didn’t catch that either. The concept of love transcending space and time is truly mind blowing and adds another amazing level of emotion and awe to the story.
except love isn't a gravtitational force but an inconditional feeling which guides you where you need to be. still love the movie though
I would like to give some scientific refinement to your sentiment; Our consciousness is non-local. Meaning it does not exist in three dimensional space time. Therefore it is not bound by the laws that govern three dimensional space time. That is why the experiences of consciousness, like love, can transcend space and time. Gravity is yet to be determined whether it is exclusively a three dimensional phenomenon, or something that exists in higher dimensions. It is an ongoing investigation at present time.
Edit: I also want to note that the explanation of consciousness being non-local is a scientific theory held by many prominent theoretical physicists. There are many studies that demonstrate consciousness being non-local. In fact there are mathematicians and theoretical physicists that would argue all of reality is a result of consciousness. Our conscious mind literally collapses quantum probability into the three dimensional reality we experience with our sensory organs. Without consciousness, the universe would not exist.
@@jack-o_lanternthat whole argument feels nonsensical to me and I'll use your last line to explain what I mean
It's like the old saying, "if a tree falls in a forest but nobody is around to hear it, did it make a sound?" But that old saying has a definite answer. Yes, it did make a sound. Just because nobody perceived it doesn't mean it didn't happen
The physical universe does exist, and it would exist even if we weren't around to see it. Our brains take in all the spacetime goop and translate it into something that we can roughly understand as the 3 dimensions around us. But even if we weren't here to see it, all the spacetime goop would still exist anyway. Humans aren't some magical beings that spacetime can't exist without. We are without a doubt vastly more intelligent than any other animal on earth, but if humans didn't exist, reality would keep chugging right along, and all the less intelligent animals would still perceive it
Yes, our minds "collapse" spacetime into something we can perceive as 3 dimensions, but everything out there just keeps existing even if we don't
@@j0hn00 I can’t show you the math here so if you are interested check out any of the Lex Fridman podcasts with Donald Hoffman. He explains the concept of consciousness being the precursor to reality.
Something I think is really amazing about this movie is that when Nolan approached Hans Zimmer for the soundtrack, he asked Zimmer to compose something that illustrates the relationship between a father and his child. Zimmer knew nothing about the plot or even the genre. While the movie is this crazy sci-fi concept, the soundtrack keeps highlighting the true theme of the love he has for his daughter - similar to the concept Brand described when she was saying love transcends dimensions and was driving her to see Edmond.
This movie deserves way more love than it gets.
I couldn’t agree more. - Mikey
It's the third highest rated Nolan film on IMDB though. Just behind Inception and The Dark Knight. But I do agree it's a wonderful movie, and it can bring most people to tears for sure. I love it.
Your point is right, but its 22nd on iMDB. Dark Knight is 3rd, Inception 14th. Nolan is good, but not all 3 of the top 3 good ahah@@rowaystarco
Shawshank is 1, The Godfather is 2.
But yeah, its pretty hard to say this movie is underrated, basically everyone calls it a masterpiece.
I didn't write it was the third highest rated movie on IDMB, you should have read my comment again 🙃@@Me-ui1zy
@@rowaystarco I love Inception and The Dark Knight, but I think Inception is the best of the three.
I think the design of the earth tech in the first arc of the movie is really intelligent. Because there's a global food crisis, they don't bother designing fancy gadgets like we're used to seeing in futuristic movies. Instead, a lot of the tech actually reverts BACKWARDS, to what's cheap and easy to make. Only the software has advanced: AI powered farm equipment, automated drones, and aging military robots.
cutting the docking scene might be the most disrespectful thing I've experienced in a long time haha
Guys we can’t keep everything. Trust me, I loved every second but we have to make really hard decisions. I’m so sorry 😞- Mikey
@@mikeyshowpresents lol no worries, its just a personal /fan favorite scene.
@@mikeyshowpresentsWhile the docking scene is one of my favourites, I do genuinely think you guys made the right call cutting it for some of the more... human/emotional stuff that I've seen most other reactions cut out.
@@RotundBox That was our thinking. The docking scene was really amazing but we really went for the stuff that punched us in the gut emotionallly. - Mikey
Right? It's one of the top 3 or 4 scenes in the movie. Weird.
“I thought you were the ghost” The level of foreshadowing in this movie is amazing.
And when he says: “parents are the ghost of their children’s future.” That was blatant foreshadowing.
@@ryanmathison3608 you know it is foreshadowing, but you really dont have much of an idea of what it means until you reach the end
28:37 so here’s an interesting fact for you. So this movie was released in 2014, and Nolan consulted a lot of scientists for this film, including the theoretics of what a black hole would look like theoretically because at the time we had never had a photograph of one. and I think we got our first picture of one like last year and it looks so similar to what’s presented in this movie. It’s crazy how close it is.
That’s really cool!!
@@mikeyshowpresents this is in my opinion my favorite film of all time. Really glad you guys enjoyed it.
The fact that Gargantua had an (edge-on view) "ring" (The Accretion Disk), but ALSO had a circular Halo, Above and Below: That Halo is the the gravity BENDING light AROUND from the Far Side of the Disk, then-visible to us 'above' and 'below' the black hole !
The telescope photos catch something else: the Doppler effect - because one side of the disk is moving (rapidly) Away from us, and the other is moving (rapidly) Toward us.
That was omitted in the movie effect, on the assumption that movie viewers would more relate to a celestial object that was 'symmetrical'.
@@anorthosite I mean I didn’t know all that I was just simply referring to the fact that since we had never seen a black hole before it’s interesting that they were able to visualize it in this movie and then when we finally got our first picture of a black hole house similar, both of them looked
@@The_Movie_Minute
Art, approximating/predicting observation of Existence (astrophysicists were consulted in the making of the movie).
It's All Good, or (to translate into Matthew MC) :
"Allright Allright Allright...Slick" ;D
Y’know. I’ve understood how time dilation works for a while. But it never really struck me as hard as Connor seeing his kids so much older in the span of what felt like a New York minute to him. It’s such a visceral punch in the gut.
The greatest movie of all time, for me personally. I’ve caught grief from people who disagree, that’s fine, but no other film has the ability to make me feel the way Interstellar does every time.
I highly recommend Arrival, as others have. It’s fantastic!
Cheers!
I think we will do Arrival because I love the director. He did Dune and Sicario! - Mikey
@@mikeyshowpresents yes!! He (Denis Villeneuve) also did Blade Runner 2049. He and Nolan are my two favorite directors. They both make movies that:
1. Are visually stunning
2. Have jaw-dropping soundtracks
3. Are extremely intelligent, thought-provoking, but also deeply human and emotional.
Can’t wait to see your Arrival reaction (and hope you do BR2049 if you haven’t already). Subbed!! 😁
@@mikeyshowpresentsArrival is great but IMO it doesn't compare to Interstellar.
fr
It is very hard to really label just one movie as the greatest, there are just too many deserving of that title. At some point I don't order them, which is why I don't have a top 10. There is just a collection of works that are all labelled as "the greatest ones", that's where I put it, together with others that don't need to be further categorized.
A cool detail to the film: In the background soundtrack when they land on the first water planet, there is a ticking sound. Based on the seven years per hour effect, every tick you hear represents a day going by back on Earth. Nolan decided to include that.
Seeing this movie in IMAX is insane. You have to see it in 2024 for the 10 year anniversary. It changed my life. Saw it 5 times in the theater.
Truly one of my favorite films of all time after seeing it.
Is it confirmed because that’s too good for IMAX to pass up
@@wiiplaya25 yes, they're doing it! I'm so hyped to see it in IMAX again.
This is my favorite film of all time. I don’t think anything can compare to the emotion, the anxiety, the visual stimulation, music. Everything about it is perfect. I still remember walking out of the theater as a 20 year old kid and just being dumbfounded at what I just watched. Trust me it’s even better the second time around. Most don’t grasp the complexity and the weight of the story the first time around. Well done on the reaction gentlemen. I’m glad you enjoyed it as much as I did
It’s in my top 5 all time for sure!!! - Mikey
I just finished leaving my own comment on this video before scrolling down to find yours pretty much describing the same kind of all-absorbing reaction. Cheers!
I got my wife to watch it as she had never seen it before, and she couldn’t stop herself from crying when she realized he wasn’t the hero of the story, but his daughter was.
I feel like they were both the heroes, Murphy couldn't have saved everyone and the world without her dad sacrificing himself to go into the blackhole and inputting information into the clock hand, Cooper wouldn't have been a hero if it wasn't for his children, he wanted them to have a future and save them which is why he left in the first place.
@@husnasamadi2971Damn is it hard when he sees her after all those years.
He’s for sure the hero

Ugh. Right in the gut.
This line starts the ugly crying for me EVERY TIME. 😂
Ugly crying. Every time. As someone who never had a father like Cooper, I guess it hits me harder when other people (fictional or not) have such a deep connection with their loving fathers. Murph went through so much pain 😢 I sympathize with her feelings of abandonment and resentment.
Every father knows it
I remember watching this before I was a dad. It hits SOOOOO much harder after becoming a parent. I teared up the first time through...I am absolutely bawling my eyes out watching it as a parent. One of the greatest movies of all time.
I couldn’t agree with you more. I have three boys. I have twins that are 14 and my oldest is 17. As you can see by my reaction, clearly I was thinking of them as I watched this film. It really does hit you harder when you’re a parent.

Dude. I’m working most of the time and get to see my 2 year old a few hours a week at most.
That scene pulled some strings before but it hits like a truck now.
I've loved this movie since it came out, my favorite of all time. I'm weirdly excited to see it when I become a father one day because I'm such a sucker for the catharsis.
One of the best movies every made.
Facts
*They're waves"
That's when the movie happens😮
Mikey’s emotions mirrors my own so much that it makes me cry even more watching this. I love this movie and his reaction.
Thank you so much. This was one of the most touching films I’ve ever seen in my life. - Mikey
Haha the way Sean said “thank God” when the movie ended 😂 I felt that. I couldn’t bare being anymore emotional by the end either
Sean is seriously one of the funniest human beings if not the funniest human being I know. - Mikey
The score to this film is amazing too, cannot go unnoticed.
greatest movie i've seen in my life. I went to see it in IMAX the day it opened and immediately bought another ticket for the very next showing. such an experience. wish i could wipe my brain and be able to watch it again for the first time.
It is now in my top 5 of all time. - Mikey
I did the exact same thing with Inception. No spoilers in case the boys have not seen it, but that last scene caused me to question what had transpired, so I needed to see it again.
I saw it in the movie theatres. I was speechless when I came out. Completely numb. It was a feeling I’ll never forget.
This is my favorite reaction ever. You guys had the literal same reaction as me. Glad you guys enjoyed it 🫡
When I saw INTERSTELLAR for the first time in theaters--on an actual IMAX screen, to boot--I felt such a variety of emotions that no other movie (before or since) has induced in me. I was mostly in awe of it. Swells of emotion. The visuals were beautiful. The music lifted me. The tension struck new chords in me. The acting wrecked me. I was happy, I was sad, I was thrilled, I was worried; I even chuckled at some points. This movie had it all. I left the theater with such a wide grin. I remember telling the others in my viewing party (which included my wife) that we just watched Nolan’s masterpiece and that it was probably the best film I’ve ever experienced--because it was not just a movie, it was truly an experience for me. I ended up watching it on that same IMAX screen again soon after. And then on a regular screen somewhere else the next week. And then on a so-called (not so big) IMAX” screen (i.e., a LIE-MAX) at yet a 3rd theater sometime after (to cleanse my viewing palette from the smaller screen at the 2nd theater). So I saw this movie in theaters four (4) times, which is something that again, has NOT happened before or since.
INTERSTELLAR is currently my favorite movie of all-time. Funnily enough, my previous all-time favorite was also a Nolan classic: MEMENTO.
I really enjoy watching other people’s reactions to INTERSTELLAR. My wife doesn’t understand what I like about such content but it just brings me joy to see others experience this movie. It’s almost like I’m watching it for the first time again. 😊
UPDATE: I don't know how I was so lucky, but I recently stumbled across the INTERSTELLAR movie page on the Fandango website last week and noticed that a theater about an hour away from me was playing the movie this weekend. So of course I had to make the drive to go see it (I caught the Sunday matinee). So now I've seen this film five (5) times in a cinema.

Oh man I'm so sad that you guys didnt include the Docking scene. By far the best scene of this entire masterpiece
So much. It would have only added a few minutes!
Yeah, I remember… The utter awe when I walked from the theater with my partner and we didn’t say a word till we got home after 20 minutes. Watching your reaction brought it all back. Wow.
This movie hit me like a freight train. - Mikey
Dito. It was a saturday night and I went straight to bed after coming home. I did not want to just watch some TV and I did not want to talk. I wanted to process what I just had witnessed calmly and by myself. I was so stirred up even though I do not even have kids.
Mackenzie Foy's performance as young Murph is oscar worthy. She's so underrated!
I’m a 53 year old man who just subscribed because it was so refreshing to watch a couple of grown ass men cry.
A small detail many miss is that Brand feels compelled to choose Edmunds' planet because of love and gets ridiculed for it, yet she ends up being right that it’s the habitable one (hence why she took her helmet off in relief in the final shot) demonstrating the movie's message about love transcending space and time.
hmmmmmm
Really impressed with your reactions guys .. unlike most reactors .. you seemed to know when to talk .. and when not to!
A LOT of effort went into making this movie as realistic as possible .. with minimal editorial licence.
Heartfelt reactions and well worth the viewing. Maybe you could react to 'The Martian' next .. if you haven't already done so.
Cheers from Australia guys! Subscribed.
I love introspective and attentive reactors who analyze the heck out of films by pausing them nonstop to discuss with eloquence, even if their hunches are wrong... the best parts are actually being off. LOL
This movie…so beautiful, so moving… You two are awesome. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏻
Definitely one of my favorite films ever. Of all time.
The scene where Cooper watches the messages must be the single most effective tearjerk moment in Hollywood history
I would agree with that wholeheartedly. - Mikey
Interstellar had such an impact on my life.
Love. Transcends space and time.
Great upload, sincere reaction, cried right along with you guys and I've seen the movie a dozen times.
Gonna do my University graduation project on it, I'm a film student and it's my favorite of all time so it was a no-brainer for me.
Murph's first line in the movie:
"I thought you were my ghost."
💔
🥺
You are the first person that reacted to this that guessed those were from dust bowl interviews nice one!
Sean is a smart man! - Mikey
@@mikeyshowpresents I was able to pick up on that when I first watched it as a kid, but they trick you anyway: one of the "interviewees" (the one who says "My dad was a farmer, like everyone else back then...") is Old Murph spliced in! I didn't even realize it until my 4th or 5th viewing!
Ill never understand why this film is considered to be a "lesser nolan film" by critics.. its simply a masterpiece in filmmaking. ❤
The standard is that high
saw it in theater when it came out, it's an entirely different level of hit when you hear that music in theater sounds, that rich immersive sound. So powerful.
I can’t believe you skipped the docking scene. I wanted to see your reaction. IMO it’s one of the greatest scenes in cinematic history.
0:56 "Dad, I thought you were the ghost." Talk about foreshadowing the end at the very beginning. Nolan loves his loops.
I lost count on how many insterstellar reaction videos I´ve seen but God... that was THE best I´ve watched by far. Thank you very much for your time and effort doing this amazing video!

I saw this movie at 27yo, 4 years before I became a Father for my Daughter.
It was an amazing, gut-wrenching and emotional ride at the time, and every, single, quality, reaction exponentiates that to this day.
Love your loved ones err-one, keep 'em close. Peace and blessings all.
I felt both Mikey and Sean.
I watched it the first time before I became a father, and watch it again after having my daughter. The impact was completely different.
I like watching Interstellar reactions, because they tell me it's all right for a grown man to cry. Still bawling out my eyes every time I watch it. 😭😭😭
This was insane in theaters. If it ever gets a re-release, especially in IMAX, you gotta go see it. We caught it in 70mm and it was life changing. You've gotta hear that score at the volume it was meant for.
"Man from earth", is a B-movie that glides under everyones radar.
It is my number recommendation when people ask me what to watch :)
This movie brings me to tears EVERYTIME i watch it. I think it really resonates deeper with parents. Imagine being gone for just moments and missing their entire growth, and life. That is the part that makes me the most sad.

'This movie has got to Stop!! I'm a wreck right now!' I truly appreciate your emotional reactions, especially when watching the playback videos of Murphy's kids as they grew up. Absolutely heartbreaking. Brilliant film I could watch over and over again.
As far as movies not based on a book but pure cinema, this is in my top 5 of all time. If not #1. It caused me to dig back into all of Nolan’s work and he may be my favorite director. Great reaction guys. This is wonderful storytelling.✌️

Greatest movie of all time! The way this film illicits pure emotion from the viewer is next level. I cannot wait to show this movie to my kids when they’re old enough. I am commenting this comment in 2024. So, future me, if you still have this channel and remember this comment, hello. I’m sure you watched this movie when your (our) kids are around 14-15 so that they can understand it enough and I bet you cried your eyes out like you always do. Being a father is probably one of the greatest things ever. I hope you’re the best dad ever. I can’t wait to be in your shoes.
Best reaction i've found to this film. Well edited, full of really good insights. Theorizing its the best! and an exciting and honest wholesome reaction. Thank you for this!
We really appreciate those kind words. It means so much to us that people are enjoying our channel. We are very excited about how fast it is growing because we have only done a few movies but there is a lot more on the way. Also, keep on the lookout for us releasing the docking scene in its entirety. - Mikey
Fun fact for you guys if you didn’t know already. When the crew arrives on the water planet, the significance of the time dilation is emphasized once they leave the ship. You’ll hear a ticking the entire scene. Each tick is equivalent to one day on Earth. They occur every 1.25 seconds.
How can a movie let me cry everytime a watch even the reaction ones! This movie is a masterpiece!
I just found you guys and I love your reaction to this. I like how you discuss it during the movie instead of waiting to the end. Plus, the editing is great.
How refreshing to watch human beings with life experience analysing something as opposed to whatever else is out there. Keep 'em comning gents.
They had a lot of help portraying the physics in this movie. One of the producers is a Nobel Laureate in Physics. The visual effects alone resulted in the writing of three different scientific papers on black holes.
😊 as soon as these guys started tearing up I was just like do they have daughters?! These guys are great.
Plus, I mean, interstellar is one of my favorite movies
you guys are in luck, Interstellar will be back in IMAX for a week starting September 27th! Keep an eye out for a venue list as we get closer to the date, and if possible, travel to a theater near you that will show it in IMAX 70mm. Most people have never had the pleasure to see one of the few movies shot partially with IMAX film cameras actually get projected on IMAX film. The screen is 6 stories tall and over an hour of the film will take up every inch of it, the clarity is outstanding and it feels like you're looking through a window rather than watching a video. When cooper leaves earth, the wormhole scene, millers planet, the docking scene, escaping the black hole, all of those sequences are shot with the IMAX camera and it will leave you speechless to see it on the proper screen. Truly breathtaking and it's my favorite theater experience of all time. Glad you guys enjoyed this one!
Near the end of this masterpiece's theatrical run, no one else in my family cared that much about it, and I was working 4 days each week 3000 miles from home. So I saw it in a distant theater, already feeling lonely, with only one other person in the theater way back in a corner somewhere. I could marvel and grin and cry alone. It was perfect.
Top 5 best films in history. After Rottentomatoes gave interstellar a 73% ten years ago I never went back to that site for movie or TV recommendations, it is still dead to me 🤣
Can't wait to check your Nolan movie reactions!!! Very honest and heartwarming reaction to the final 3 minutes just perfect
“Because he knew how hard it would be to get people to save the species instead of themselves”
Recently rewatched this movie and your reaction got recommended. Just wanted to say I really appreciate how you guys don't shy away from pausing and talking to fully understand what's going on. I wish others would do this!
The amount of tears I have shed because of this movie and great reactors like you guys is crazy.
I watched this movie in a long flight for the first time , and it felt crazy , because I was going to meet my daughter after some time , it hit me hard hanging high up in the air . Great Nolan and all the performances were great
Idk if y’all realized but at the end brand was at edmunds planet. He found a planet where we could thrive and started a colony. She was right because of love. Just how copper had a connection to murph cuss of love as well
You all did such a great job breaking it down and understanding it on your first watch. It truly is a beautiful film. From the story, to the score, the shots, the message, the science, even the set design.
You guys are the first reactors I’ve watched who figured out that the interviewee portion of the movie was actual documentary interview clips from Dust Bowl survivors
When Sean said that, it clicked. - Mikey
Except for one interviewee: Murph!
I'm Brazilian and this is the second time I've come to react and cry with you.
The sincerity and how you let yourself go in interstellar is incredible.
A big hug and thank you.
One of the best Sci Fi movies of all time in my opinion. The soundtrack is simply amazing. I am just hoping that they will return it to the BIG SCREEN sometime in the future.
I can proudly say I loved this movie from day 1 when I saw it in theaters on release. Mind blowing emotional film
Hard to imagine that a sci fi movie could pack so many emotional gut punches. Nolan's a genius. I would suggest Inception by Nolan. A real rollercoaster of a ride.
Guys, this was a FANTASTIC reaction. It's everything I want when I look for movie reactions. To re-experience these wonderful, powerful, resonating emotions that these films evoke in us. I truly felt like I was back in the theater watching this with my friends for the first time again. This is one of the truly most magical things about movies for me. We can sit in a dark room, in front of a screen, and all be connected by the power of storytelling. I'm stuck in bed with the flu, and this reaction has made my day. I was laughing, cheering, and crying all over again with you both. And your love of movies shines through in your videos. I deeply, deeply appreciate the time and work you guys put in to give us this stuff. Thank you!
I saw this movie for the first time in IMAX and I was in absolutely awe the entire time. I didn't want it to end and I left the theatre with such joy and wonder in my mind. Between the visuals and the film score and the gripping story of family and human losses and triumphs it's such a treat to watch. I'm glad you guys felt the same.
Footage from Ken Burns PBS Documentary - The Dust Bowl interviews.
when the movie ended, and they switched the lights back on in the theatre, not a single person was okay. kids, grown ups, dads, and anything in between, all ALL a mess. this movie is an experience.
About the interviews in the beginning, my guess is that these interviews are real and talk about the great dust bowl of the great plains in the 1930s. The movie is set in the future, but again with draught, dying crops and dust everywhere just like in the past, but now constantly.
Everything Everywhere All at Once. One of the best movies I can remember watching.
This was a fantastic reaction, so genuine. I almost had more tears in my eye's experiencing this movie again through yours... Thank you!
This was one of the most touching films I’ve ever seen in my entire life and that is saying something. - Mikey
A movie that truly hits you on all levels! It doesn't slow down, it keeps you thinking and feeling right to the very end, and I always want at least one more scene, maybe of Coop silently waking up Brand, but that's the hallmark of a great movie, that it give you so so much, but you still want more! And I was really glad Nolan didn't fall into the cliche of evil robots. I could imagine someone else saying maybe the robots were programmed to take over, like Hal9000, and they start having to fight them. But instead, TARS and CASE are friends and helpers who really make the whole thing possible. I loved that. Great reaction guys, loved it all the way!
Saw this when it came out three times. Cried harder each seperate viewing, and even worse when watching at home, never understood the people who dismiss this film because of the science and not feeling the emotion of the characters.
Watching other people watch this master piece is such a treat. Because of this movie there’s a few few people in my life that I love dearly and I always tell them… “through time and space and anywhere in between… just know I will always be your ghost” just like with Murphy and her father… he was her ghost.
yeah, this movie is a emotional roller coaster for sure! not only for the beauty of the human aspects, but also the amazing scientific aspects about our cosmos and space-time.
Interesting fact when they are on the water planet, every time you hear a tick of the metronome that means 1 day has passed on earth.
Interstellar is by far my favorite movie of all time, I love everything space-related, and the feelings and the amazing movie work behind make it such an amazing movie. No matter how many times I watch it still brings a tear to my eye.
I wish this movie explored the concept at 6:59 more. Got more into the politics and how NASA has to be hidden and how education has been changed to make people think that space travel is a useless endeavor built on propaganda.
I just feel like there’s so many interesting possibilities in a world like that, especially from a director like Chris Nolan.
I watched the movie 5 times.. cried five times.. and I cried with you guys again..
As you can see, we were both a mess. One of the most moving pictures I’ve ever seen. - Mikey
That was an awesome watch with you guys. I thoroughly enjoyed your reactions, well done!!
Fun fact about the movie. They wrote the music for it before they wrote the script. They listened to the music while writing the script. I did a whole research paper on this film in college.
Just goes to show you how brilliant Christopher Nolan and Hans Zimmer are. - Mikey
Nolan told Zimmer that it was a movie about a son and a father, and that was basically all he told him. He didn't want the typical sci fi music and didn't want Zimmer to be influenced by that.@@mikeyshowpresents
